Description
Black A/C System Orifice Tube for Various GM / Chevrolet Vehicles
The orifice tube is a metering device that creates a restriction to drop the pressure / temperature in the liquid line. It meters the flow of Freon/refrigerant only allowing enough liquid refrigerant through to easily flood the evaporator. Orifice tubes are defined by color, each color has a different size metering tube. When replacing the orifice tube always replace with the same color. Because of the screen and small metering tube, anytime you replace a compressor, the orifice tube also must be replaced.
Features:
- Designed to meet/exceed OE fit, form and function
- Durability Tested
- Leak Tested
Service Tips:
- Sometimes, removing the orifice tube can be close to impossible. If you try and wiggle them with a tool when they seem stuck, the tube can be bent out of shape, making it impossible for the new orifice tube to seal correctly. Instead, try using heat to soften the o-rings to be able to easily remove the orifice tube. This can help prevent from damaging the line.
- Some liquid lines are serviceable and are able to be opened to remove the orifice tube, but some already have the orifice tube mounted and cannot be removed. This is easy to identify by crimp marks on the line. In this instance, we recommend you replace the line.
